Martin County
Excavation & Dirt Work Contractor in Stanton, TX
Stanton is the Martin County seat, sitting on I-20 between Midland and Big Spring where cotton farming and oilfield work share the same county roads. Rangefinder Excavation works both sides of that — ag terraces and field drainage on farm ground, lease roads and pads on the leases next door.
Farm ground around Stanton has been worked for generations, and a lot of the old terraces have flattened out to where they no longer hold water back. Rebuilding them on contour is some of the most requested work we do in Martin County.
Local Note
Ag terrace work and field drainage stay in steady demand around Stanton, alongside lease road and pad construction tied to Martin County oilfield activity.
- Ground conditions
- Sandy loam farm ground over caliche across Martin County — easy digging up top, with a hard layer underneath that sets how deep a cut can practically go.
- Water & drainage
- Rain sheets across flat cotton ground instead of channeling, so terraces and graded waterways end up doing the work that natural fall does elsewhere.
- Getting there
- I-20 and SH-137 carry the haul routes through Stanton; farm and lease access runs off Martin County roads.
- Permits
- TxDOT's Odessa district covers I-20 and SH-137 frontage; Martin County Road & Bridge and the City of Stanton handle county roads and in-town work.
